D                       Bm           Em              G A

Come over the hills, my bonnie Irish lass

           D            Bm                 G A

Come over the hills to your darling

           G             F#m                G                    Bm A

You choose the rose love, and I'll make the vow

        D                  Bm            Em A D

And I'll be your true love forever

 

 

CHORUS

D                Bm               Em                     G A

Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows

D               Bm             G  A

Fair is the lily of the valley

G                  F#m            G                     Bm A

Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne

         D              Bm             Em A D

But my love is fairer than any

 

 

D                        Bm                         Em             G A

'Twas down by Killarney's green woods we strayed

            D                  Bm                      G   A

The moon and the stars they were shining

           G                    F#m             G                     Bm A

The moon shone its rays on her locks of golden hair

            D                   Bm           Em A D

She swore she'd be my love forever

 

Chorus:

 

D                       Bm               Em           G A

It's not for the parting that my sister pains

        D                Bm               G A

It's not for the grief of my mother

        G              F#m           G               Bm A

'Tis all for the loss of my bonnie Irish lass

           D                 Bm           Em A D

That my heart is breaking forever
